I am a monument to all your sins

Never go to HMV. I mean, Seriously…. Never.

My iPod headphones have bitten the dust! I know, I cried as well! RIP Babies! So I went to HMV to buy some new ones, and have a crafty browse in my lunch hour. So I went and after spending a while trying to figure out why the orange gummy headphones were £3 cheaper than the pink ones I went for a bit of a browse. I came out with, my headphone, Garth Marhengi’s Dark Place and the Virgin Suicides. Which came to about £20 with my student discount. But still! I want headphones damn it! And it’s not like I can watch any of them cause Nick’s coming over, not that that’s a bad thing Nick, I just like watching DVD’s all the time :p

Anyway moving on. I got my Xbox this weekend; the one Joe’s giving me. Not a 360 just the old one, and it’s a little rough around the edges but it was free and I love it, I’ve named it Fluffy. I spent a considerable amount of time playing Halo 2 on it last night when I should have been sleeping, which is probably why I was fifteen minutes late for work. I can see Fluffy being detrimental to my academic health… not to mention my work health :p

We have a new photocopier it at work. Apparently it can do everything, or so the sale man said when he came to install it. But it’s given me no end of jip. Where I work we monitor the student’s printing so when they send something to print it all queues up on what was formerly out ‘command workstation’ on this here PC. This was so we could interrupt printing to do society photocopying and let our graphic designer have free reign of it, also not lose control with the students paying for their copying. But this new fangled thing has removed the command workstation as it has a built in hard drive, so now I just prints when it feels like it. Also if there’s a tiny spec of dust on the glass it won’t copy until you’ve cleaned it. It doesn’t delete the jobs once it’s done them, just leaves them on there to confuse you. The advantage of this new photocopier? It prints colour. But we can’t offer a colour printing service to the students or our graphic designer because some software from the old fiery printer is blocking any colour transmissions being send. I apologise for that rant. The new printer irks me, can you tell? It also beeps for no apparent reason.

So what’s coming up for me then? Well this week I am working, sleeping around work and attempting to complete Halo 2. On Saturday we’re going to the planet, my god I love that place, and hopefully my new camera battery should have arrived so I can take lots of photo’s and whack em up here and you can all laugh at our drunkenness. And the weekend after I’m going sight seeing in London with Joe. It’ll be grand. Anyone got anything they think we should see?

OK I’m gonna go, I hope this update was sufficient :p

See you xx

ps: i also edited my calendar. x
